Agilent / HP 8495H
Programmable Step Attenuator, DC to 18 GHz, 0 to 70 dB, 10 dB steps
Description
This Programmable step attenuator provides repeatability and reliability. Attenuation is provided in 10dB steps from 0 to 70dB. Precision gold plated leaf springs ensure long life and very high attenuator repeatability. To improve measurement accuracy, NIST traceable data is available as Option 890. A maximum switching time of 20ms speeds automatic testing and custom step attenuator/switch combinations are possible.
